declined A separate server for TO mobile version

[aadithyan007 1]

I recently checked out the mobile version of TO and i think that having the same severs for different platform users ain't that cool. The controls in mobile version is a bit difficult than when you play it in a pc (I dont blame the controls, this is the most any game developer can give). For example a pc gamer like myself can easily move the turret by holding the x or y but a mobile user would have to swipe the screen hard..lol.....what i suggest is that the gameplay would be good if the mobile players are allowed to play in separate servers... so the moderators and developers can give this a thought and do the necessary..

The answer Impulse gave isn’t really an explanation. Could you explain why devs made this choice?

I believe this was explained in the most recent V-log, when they were talking about merging BR servers into the main ones. Any online game needs players in order to be enjoyable, otherwise you'd have to either play against bots, or wait 30 minutes for a single battle to fill up. But when you're already a massive project with a large player base (which TO is), there is no reason to miss the opportunity to use your current player base to populate mobile servers. So rather than putting mobile players into separate servers, devs decided to instead give them a number of advantages to allow them to compete against PC players more effectively.

the playerbase is getting smaller so if they separated the servers then matches would take ages and they would be even more dead and full of the same people than it is now. these new updates and challenges are too little too late.

Totally acceptable @Maf . Realized that number of Players is a problem in here.

Even if there were separate servers for mobile people can just fire up android on a pc or connect a keyboard to phone. Totally defeats purpose of it, so why not merge it immediately

They need to add TO mobile to iOS first.

lol a suggestion from a pc user about mobile user. It is not because you think that it is difficult, that it is actually the case.

I tried and it is difficult, but the main reason it because Ii learn to play the way round, and mobile force me to switch hands, which I can't. But if you played from the start on the mobile, ain't no problem. Watch the youtube video of mobile player you will see that they are not noobs.

Few will actually figure that out.
